I don’t know why, but Naomi’s Gun Sniper is calling out to me. ): Oh, Gun Sniper, don’t do this to me!

I’ve always wanted to get a Kotobukiya HMM Zoid kit, because seriously, look at all the details and parts! I missed out on getting a Genosaurer, and even then, with Genosaurer, I wasn’t as badly poisoned as now. I’ve always been neutral to Gun Sniper, and I’m more of a blue-mech person, so I don’t understand this attraction. @_@

Yet, The moment I laid eyes on this beauty on NK, something kept telling me to GET IT GET IT GET IT. And of course, receiving the preorder list email from La Tendo [with Gun Sniper in it] didn’t help very much.

La Tendo’s accepting pre-orders for it at a member price of SGD67.50. I can afford the $30 deposit, and $37.50 shouldn’t be a problem since I’ll have months to save up until March next year. What’s sweeter is that the orders only close on 15 Dec, and with any luck, I can preorder it at the same time I collect 00R. But my problem is that I have no space. xDDD;; Even if I can magically obtain a cabinet, where can I put it?

Doesn’t help that I’m very picky about where I display my kits. Must be away from sunlight, must not be too cold [my sister keeps our room at freezing temperatures .__.], must not be exposed to dust…my sis tried to help me decide where to put a possible new cabinet, and I must have driven her up the wall with my choosiness. XD

Maybe I should just save the money for the inevitable 00 Movie kit flood, but Gun Sniper!! ;_;

Getting a Gun Sniper will also only mean that I’ll look into getting a Yujin Naomi figurine. And those things are no longer in production. ):

Watch as I cave and shell out money for it…Mom’s not going to be pleased. xD

Ah I saw the regular Gun Sniper (white purple version) at China Sq Central selling for $55. Actually I was tempted to get the dual Molga’s lol….(I have this fetish for the odd mech :D) that I saw at M workshop.

From time to time I switch my display kits and keep the rest in boxes, of course sealed with ziplocks :D. From time to time I’ll switch depending on my taste. But you are right about the sunlight, it will cause your paint jobs to yellow faster!

I really should go to China Square Central one day. XD; People always talk about how they have good items at good prices, but I’ve never actually found out how to get there. Whoops. And odd mechs…Zoids has a good number of them. xD Hopefully, Kotobukiya will release more stuff for the series.

Ziplocks, that is really a good way to keep out dust XD I’ve kept a few in boxes too, but I don’t usually change. Too lazy, plus all my displayed stuff are my current favourites. My hope is that I don’t have to keep any more model kits because there’s something sad about keeping things that are meant to be displayed. ):

And I thought so! Even though I don’t paint my kits, it’s probably still not a good idea anyway to leave them and figurines constantly exposed to the sun.

I just been there yesterday lol…they got tons of kotobukiya kits…I saw a SRW Art 1…very tempting. It quite close to the china town MRT :D Just opposite Hong Lim Complex haha. Also my first time there. Ren is a regular at China SQ central so maybe you can ask him to keep a good look out for ya on certain kit prices :)

Sometime I keep my kits in their boxes for too long I end up using their parts for modding….haha got to show you guys my gundam graveyard aka spare parts box someday.

Awesome, time to get poisoned some more. XDD And thanks for the directions! Maybe when it’s not raining so much, I’ll drop by there someday. Been cooped up at home for too long. x_x And I’ll keep that in mind :D :D

Gundam graveyard ;_; Sounds sombre, but true, and reusing their parts beats keeping them and letting them just take up space. xDD

That’s a really good price!! O_O And their deposit isn’t so bad too. Ahhh I was going to get over my poisoning and forget about this kit and then you link this… XD Looks like a trip to CSC is in order!

By the way, for the deposit, are you allowed to go down to the shop to pay for it or do you have to pay via bank transfer? The How To Buy page isn’t loading for me. XD;
